It was obvious that the injuries suffered by the mask were too serious. Moreover, as it continued to worsen, even if it devoured a large amount of the Crimson Soul Stone’s essence, it still could not stop this deterioration.

“Teacher’s injuries are rapidly worsening…”

When An Jigud saw the changes in the mask, he immediately determined the current situation of the mask.

He was shocked and hurriedly flew out from the direction of the pool. He stood by the pool and prepared to use the method that the Thousand-Faced King had taught him. He activated the secret engraving array and extracted the essence of the entire stone hall into the square pool to help the Thousand-Faced King heal his soul injuries.

However, just as he made the first hand seal towards the engraving array, he suddenly stopped.

His soul had once been shattered by Chu Zhou.

Even if he absorbed a large amount of Crimson Soul Stone essence and repaired his soul completely… it could only roughly repair it.

There were also many minor injuries that could not be healed.

It was even more impossible to restore his potential to its original state.

“Even if my soul is completely restored… my potential is not as good as before.”

“My talent is inferior to Chu Zhou’s to begin with. If my potential is reduced again… How can I catch up to him in the future, surpass him, and take revenge on him?”

An Jigud suddenly thought to himself.

Then, he thought of the news his teacher had told him—Chu Zhou had already advanced to Universe Nobility.

This made him even more frustrated.

“No! I can’t just go down like this. I want to rise again and surpass Chu Zhou!”

An Jigud roared in his heart. His face contorted, and his expression became extremely ferocious.

Suddenly, he looked at the mask that was absorbing the essence of the Crimson Soul Stone.

He knew that this mask was transformed from his teacher’s soul.

Without a doubt, his teacher, the Thousand-Faced King, had suffered an unprecedented blow. His soul had also become unprecedentedly weak.

As a result, he could not even give him an additional explanation just now.

“Under normal circumstances, even with the nourishment of the essence of the Crimson Soul Stone… my soul won’t be able to recover to its original state.”

“However… with Teacher’s ‘help’, not only can my soul recover to its original state, but it can even surpass the past.”

An Jigud stared deeply at the mask in the square pool, his gaze gradually becoming greedy and hot.

“Teacher… You seem to be seriously injured and in great pain! Let me free you!”

A look of mercy suddenly appeared on his face.

He took a step forward and stepped into the square pool again.

Moreover, he opened his mouth and his mouth instantly became incomparably huge. It was even filled with fangs, like the huge mouth of a shark.

Crack!

He swallowed the mask formed by the soul of the Thousand-Faced King in one bite and chewed violently. Cracking sounds came from his mouth.

The consciousness of the Thousand-Faced King was awakened.

“My disciple, what are you doing?” The Thousand-Faced King was shocked and furious.

“Teacher, didn’t you see what I was doing? I think you’re in too much pain. I’m freeing you!”

An Jigud’s ferocious voice sounded.

“Traitor! Are you going to kill your master?”

The Thousand-Faced King was furious.

A terrifying power emanated from the mask, as if it wanted to break free from the huge mouth filled with fangs.

An Jigud bit down hard and used his sharp teeth to stop the mask from breaking free.

“My teacher, you don’t have to struggle anymore.”

He said ferociously, “You’re about to die. You might as well fulfill your disciple’s wish. Your soul power, your memories, and knowledge are very important to your disciple!”

“Traitor, you will die a horrible death!”

The Lord of a Thousand Faces had gone mad.

He brought An Jigud’s soul fragment to this Crimson Soul Stone hall that he had secretly built to help An Jigud repair his soul in order to save An Jigud. However, An Jigud was repaying him in this way?

“Hehehe, Teacher, you’re the one who’ll die!”

An Jigud’s gaze was extremely ferocious and savage. “And I will inherit everything from you and live better and better!”

With that, he exerted force with his huge mouth full of fangs.

The mask was completely crushed by him with a bang.

The Thousand-Faced King, an overlord that many important figures of the Origin Race thought highly of, had completely died at this moment..
